P E T EPeople, Environment, Tools and Exposure
PETE represents a process encompassing Health & Safety, risk assessment and project management. PETE assists in ensuring that all aspects of a project are managed safely.Below are a few of the PETE considerations taken into account on this project.
[This PETE is all of the people involved above who must have asbestos awareness training to ensure they are legally compliant for controlling the risks to People, Environment, Tools and Exposure].
• Amiante STR Ltd were commissioned by the demolition contractor who was also working on site at the time.
• This means we are working to the demolition contractor’s site specific requirements therefore our method
statement and risk assessment had to be submitted to the demolition contractor before our works could
commence for their approval, to enable the contractor to comply with their health and safety responsibilities.[This PETE represents the safe removal of asbestos materials in compliance with current legislation and is also our reminder to assess all of the risks to our own staff of People, Environment, Tools and Exposure and not just the asbestos risk].
• Working within and old disused building, they needed to report to the demolition contractor for a site induction
then sign in at the start and end of each shift and also to comply with their site safety and fire procedural
requirements at all times.
[This PETE is where those planning a project ask about the impact of People, Environment, Tools and Exposure to the project. Includes
Client discussions, site surveying, estimating or consultancy].
• The works had to be notified to the Health & Safety Executive 14 days prior to start date. Risk assessment & method statements were prepared with particular emphasis on the fact that the building was already in a state of disrepair.
• Works had to be carried out under fully controlled conditions requiring the erection of polythene enclosures which
were taken under negative pressure to prevent the release of asbestos fibres.
